Notes: My Christmas beer, similar to Troegs Mad Elf
Steep chocolate malt in 1 qt of water in a separate pot for 30 min at 152 degrees F while heating boil water. Strain and sparge with another 1 qt of 150-170 degree water and add to boil water
Late additions at 15 min
I put the whole cherries in the boil. After the wort is cooled I strain the cherries out using a colander while transferring from the kettle to primary.
Need about 450B yeast cells (I often make a Belgian pale ale and pitch on the trub)
1-2 weeks primary
2-4 weeks secondary
Carbonate to 2.2 volumes |

We really loved this porter - sweet and velvety, nice coffee and chocolate flavours.
Served on draught, great head retention and looked just like Guinness as it was settling.
Compared it to a can of Guinness draughtflow and there was no comparison - Guinness tasted thin and chemically, the London Porter delicious. I'll be doing this recipe again. |

Notes: First go at this. Trying to make a classic Witbier with a small twist. I don't like brewing clones much. I figure if someone wants a Hoegaarden they will go buy one. I want to give someone a similar taste, but something a little different. Brewed on 4/6/13. I will ferment this in the primary until the beer clears wait an additional week then bottle. Bottle age at 65 degrees for 3 weeks then enjoy. Tasting notes to follow. |

Notes: Wyeast Urquell Lager yeast (2001) has been discontinued. Use 2278, 2782 or 2000 instead.
Carapils amount is over Breiss recommended limit of 1-5%. Could be too much head, thick mouth feel (too much body), a bit sweeter as less fermentable, and may dilute the “primary” flavours in the recipe. Adding more hops could compensate for the sweetness apparently.
Need at least 2 yeast liquid packs, in 2.5 ltr starter at 1.040. |

Notes: Originally set out to make a Founder's Porter clone. Thanks to a specialty malt crushing accident, we ended up with something a little bigger. Dark, Rich, Sexy.
Based on the all-grain recipe mentioned in the link, we believe this is going to be LEGEN -- wait for it -- DARY! |
